New Feature: The SBPersonalized Home Page

Posted by garym on June 29, 2008 - 8:04pm

Have you ever wished there was just one webpage where you could get everything in a glance and then get on with whatever else you were doing?

When I sit down here at my desk, I check Facebook, I check my twitter feed, my news feed, I check the weather, the local news and I check up on the scuttlebutt 'round the SBP, and that was a lot of webpages to flip through. Now, thanks to GoogleApps, I can do all this and more all at once, all woven into one easy portal page readable from anywhere:

home.teledyn.com is a new SBP community member service providing a one-stop portal showing your latest emails, gtalk messages, local gas prices and, of course, all the happenings here on the Penisular! While the basic page is open to everyone, folks using our South Bruce Peninsular @teledyn.com email accounts can customize their start page and select from hundreds of services including Facebook and Twitter, tv listings, horoscopes, photos, games, gadgets and dozens of world and local news services.

Thanks for that kind endorsement, Bub, and yes, I'm finding that portal page quite useful -- if you haven't tried yet, check out the hundreds of other little blocks you can plug into that page; true, many of them are amateurish and broken (don't look at me!) but some of them are downright useful.

And in the name of always aiming to please our South Bruce Peninsulars, I have also revamped the Site Search over in the left sidebar: Search will now search all of the 'major' websites relevant to us South Bruce Peninsulars!

so check it out, let me know how you like it :)
